Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Shu’s att.i.tude toward Zhang Chunlin was very unyielding. First, after hearing that Zhang Chunlin was the former grand minister of the Great Xia Forging Division, he felt that Zhang Chunlin wasn’t someone important. Second, he had done it on purpose.
He didn’t trust Zhang Chunlin yet. There were some things that he wouldn’t tell him.
Of course, most importantly, Zhou Shu wasn’t afraid that Zhang Chunlin would disobey his orders at all. If he really dared to bring the tricks of the bureaucracy here, Zhou Shu wouldn’t mind giving him to the demonic beasts.
After leaving the cave, Zhou Shu flew in a direction at a speed that matched Yao Qing’s cultivation.
After flying dozens of kilometers and noticing that the gazes observing him had already disappeared, he increased his speed and instantly arrived hundreds of kilometers away.
!!
Zhang San lay in the gra.s.s, his spiritual essence fluctuations suppressed to the lowest level. Even if there were demonic beasts pa.s.sing by, if he couldn’t detect them, they likely wouldn’t discover him.
Zhang San had mastered this ability when he was a scout in the Ten Nations Continent. This ability had saved his life many times.
Zhang San had been waiting here for several days, but Zhou Shu had never appeared.
Fortunately, he had always been patient. He was just wondering why the king had taken a fancy to him.
What exactly was the divine weapon the king wanted to give him? Could it be a legendary connate divine weapon?
Although he knew he was being delusional, he couldn’t control the thoughts in his mind.
He shook his head with a wry smile at the thought.
“What are you thinking about? Why are you shaking your head?”
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear.
Zhang San was shocked. He jumped up and subconsciously drew his bow.
“Your Highness!”
Seeing the person behind him, Zhang San heaved a sigh of relief and put down his bow.
“Well hidden.” Zhou Shu nodded with admiration. “Try this bow and see if it suits you.”
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Zhang San was excited, but he still bowed to Zhou Shu before reaching out to take the bow.
He felt a slight weight on his arm as the bow came into his hand. It was heavy!
Buzz—
Zhang San’s arm trembled as he drew his bow. But the longbow was only half drawn!
Zhang San didn’t believe it. With his cultivation, he could draw a bow no matter how tight it was!
Activating his spiritual essence, he tried again, but it was still only half open.
“It hasn’t recognized its master yet. It can only be drawn open halfway at most.” Zhou Shu smiled. “You’re already very capable to be able to draw it open by half.
“I’ll tell you how to refine this bow.”
Zhou Shu told Zhang San the method to refine the connate divine weapon. Zhang San’s face was full of surprise. He followed Zhou Shu’s instructions and began to refine the longbow.
Zhou Shu spread his divine sense and personally protected him.
A moment later, the longbow flowed like water from Zhang San’s pores into his meridians.
Zhang San let out a painful groan. Then his spiritual essence began to boil, and m.u.f.fled sounds came from his body.
Bang!
Blood sprayed from all his pores. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, his aura began to soar.
Zhou Shu’s lips curled up slightly as he raised his hand to suppress the sound of his cultivation breakthrough.
After another two hours, Zhang San’s aura gradually stabilized.
Zhang San opened his eyes, and a seemingly tangible light flashed in them. He opened his mouth in surprise. The next moment, he knelt on one knee toward Zhou Shu with a grateful expression. “Your Highness.”
“Get up,” Zhou Shu said. “Just don’t scold me later.”
“How is that possible!” Zhang San said seriously. “Your Highness has given me a new life. I will definitely not be disrespectful to Your Highness! Even if Your Highness wants my life, I will definitely not have any complaints!”
“Your name is Zhang San?” Zhou Shu looked at the young man in front of him and smiled. “What a good name.”
Zhou Shu continued, “Alright, back to the topic. My Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow isn’t so easy to obtain.”
“What would you like me to do, Your Highness?” Zhang San said with a serious expression, “I’ll do anything!”
He was now very sure that the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow that the king had given him was a legendary connate divine weapon!
This was a connate divine weapon. It was said that in the Armament Manual of the Heavenly Mountain Villa, there were less than ten connate divine weapons.
This Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow was one of the few connate divine weapons in the world.
His Highness had given me such a precious weapon just like that. I can’t repay this immense favor even with ten thousand deaths!
Zhang San only had one thought—the king had treated him as a state soldier, and he would definitely repay him!
“I’m currently hiding among the demonic beasts to do some important things. I need someone to cooperate with me,” Zhou Shu said. “You’re good at archery and can snipe from afar. You’re the best person.
“Your cultivation was a little weak, but the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow can more or less make up for it.”
Zhang San listened attentively to Zhou Shu speaking. “From today onward, I want you to a.s.sa.s.sinate a Great Demon of the Demon Realm.”
“a.s.sa.s.sinate a Great Demon?” Zhang San was stunned and puzzled.
“That’s right,” Zhou Shu said. “This mission is very dangerous. With the cultivation of Great Demons, even if you shoot arrows from dozens of kilometers away, they might be able to catch up to you.
“If you’re afraid of danger, you can refuse.” Zhou Shu looked at Zhang San.
